Unresponsive touch screen - Samsung Gear S2

Hey guys,
My wife has an att gear s2 sport. Her screen is unresponsive to touch. Everything else works, the bezel turns and the screens and scrolls though apps, the side buttons works. But can't seem to get the screen to work. There are times where it works and then it stops working again. I already tried to factory reset the s2 but it didn't solve it.
She mentioned that this started occurring after an update. Not sure what fw it currently is on. Anyone have a solution for this?

I have the same problem. Can anyone help?

same issue
I have the same issue not sure if I had an update recently, but my screen is unresponsive and sometimes it will just start clicking things on its own.

Restart, and if that doesn't work, Factory Reset the watch.
I don't have the "how to" in front of me, but a quick Google search should find it easily.

Hardware Keyboard quits sometimes. Help Touch Pro device

Need to know if anyone here with a Touch Pro device ever had the hardware keyboard just stop working. I cannot time when it will happen it varies. I can slide out the keyboard to respond to a message the backlight is on the all of a sudden after a little tyoing the light goes off and no key I press shows up. All of the screen keyboards work no issues. I have to do a soft reset to get it back. Today before it locked one of the keys I pressed was still in memory and I had rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr all over the screen. I had to take the pen and cancel the message but the keyboard was not working anymore.
I called Verizon they had me change my backlight setting thinking it was that but of course it did not. Now they are saying a device replacement...guess I should have gotten the insurance.
Is there any advice someone can offer me on this problem?
I've had this happen to me one or two times, and the times that I've had the problem I've fixed it but soft resetting. I've just brushed it off as one of the quirks, and I haven't worried about it since it hasn't happened in a while. If it continues to occur I guess I would see what you're carrier can do for you
Mine did that a mutliple of times. Same exact scenario. Since I upgraded to energyrom, hasnt done it once. If I had to take a guess, some glitch in the preloaded rom?

tilt kaiser touch screen malfunction

hey, I've been having random problems with my tilt kaiser with cfw 3.57htcks.
the touch screen will stop working altogether, and even when it starts working, it randomly starts pushing the lower left button on the touch screen and opening it to whatever it is, such as all messages, send, send, send, and keeps going. I'm not sure if it's a firmware problem, or a device problem -_-;
I've even soft resetted, hard resetted, and just getting through the calibration screen took long enough, and it STILL doesnt work right.
update- the touch screen no longer responds at all.
Which is lame, since I haven't fooled around with it.

I have the same problem. Is there anybody here to help us?Did you resolve your problem?

[Q] HELP: screen unresponsive when woken up ONLY

This issue make absolutely no sense to me, and only started yesterday.
First, I am stock, unrooted, no mods, no crazy sideloaded apps, just a good old Nexus 5.
When I go to wake the phone, I have noticed that the lock screen is 100% unresponsive. I cannot enter a pattern lock. I then switched to a PIN lock, thinking maybe there was an issue with the pattern. Again, unresponsive screen. So I took my screen lock off completely, thinking there is maybe an issue with the lock screen in general. Again, even with no lock screen, I cannot swipe screens, open apps, nothing. This also includes the soft keys at the bottom.
I decide to factory reset my phone. I update only my Google apps, and again notice the same issue. The screen is totally unresponsive, but then 2 white lines will flash at the top, and the screen will work.
Once those white lines flash, the screen is completely responsive like normal, there are no other issues until the phone goes to sleep again. Sometimes the little lines flash 2 seconds after waking up, sometimes 30 seconds, sometimes I have to hard reset the phone.
I also am linking to a YouTube video that I recorded of the issue in case I am not making sense.
So can anyone explain this to me? What could cause this issue on a phone that has never been rooted or flashed or anything?
Thanks in advance for the help!

Weird. Issue. Maybe you should stick everything from your sd to your pc.
And flash a factory image from fresh install from here - https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images - if you're lucky the drivers maybe corrupt and not the hardware
Sent from my Android 5.0 Nexus 5
Could also be a loose connection. Maybe the flex cable to from your screen wiggled its way out a bit. I've never seen that before on any phone. I'd back everything up and flash a factory image. If the issue persists, contact Google and see if you can RMA the device.

Galaxy s6 soft keys flashing

Hi guys,
My girlfriend has a galaxy s6 running marshmallow. The soft keys are constantly flashing/blinking whenever the screen is turned on. This also causes the device to lag, draining the battery.
I've tried factory resetting the device, and running it in safe mode suggesting it's not software related.
I also installed the the app "Galaxy button lights" that allows the control of the lights, this does stop them flashing, but the device still seems to be running slowly.
Thanks for any advice in advance.
Hi did you find a solution to this as I am having the same problem. Power mode on stops the constant flashing but the phone still lags and it flashes when I charge my phone. My power button also phantom presses :/
I have the same problem. Did you find a solution?
Me too. Turning off the buttons seems to help... it drives me less crazy... but it still feels like there is screen lag. I think this started after I installed the last system update.
One of my co-workers suggested that it may be caused by moisture inside the phone. I set it in the sun for a while, and the problem seems to have gone away.

This happened to me like 4 months ago, it hasn't "dried" till now However if i press hard on the lower left bezel - next to the app switcher button my phone works. I have a theory that the contact has become loose under the phone or so?
Hi, I have the same problem for a long time I installed a couple of firmware and the same thing on the factory software always happens, now I use custom rom and it works without problems, it means only on the factory versions I have a problem

Touchscreen randomly not working

Hello guys,
This is not necessarily a specific S8 plus thread, it's more of a software/hardware general related issue. I just replaced my display two weeks ago because I cracked the screen and the display a while ago.
After replacement, I got the phone, everything was good until I dialed *#0*# and started testing the touch. It appears that theres a portion in the middle of the display that is not working (the boxes wont go green when touching them). The thing is that, sometimes, the touch passes this test as in everything is ok and sometimes, it fails.
From time to time(pretty frequent) it randomly freezes and I have to hit the power button to open and close the screen to make it work again.
I just flashed the android Pie hoping a complete erase would fix the thing but it appears it didn't. Do you guys know any solution to my issue besides returning the phone in the service?
Thanks!
